- Once it feels slightly tacky, gently wipe off with a CARPRO 2Face Microfiber Towel.
- Be sure to remove all excess residue and only then move to the next section.

- Flip or switch out to new 4″ suede every 1 ~ 2 panels or if residue or dirt becomes visible.

Topper:
CARPRO does not recommend a topper unless you have a good reason to do so however, if you do choose to top DQUARTZ GO then wait a minimum of:
- 1 Hour if using CQUARTZ SiC
- 4 Hours if using Reload
- 4 Hours if using Release
- 4 Hours if using GLISS
Coating Maintenance:
- Most importantly, use CARPRO Reset to wash regularly. Other soaps can leave residue that temporarily messes up the beading and allows dust and dirt to stick more readily.
- Wash Mitt:
- Microfiber mitt (Recommended for daily drivers and most cars – This mitt is easiest to maintain and is extremely durable as well as washing out most easily)
- Drying Towel
- Quick Detailing : CARPRO Release and towels.
- Occasionally (every 3 to 12 months depending on miles) decontaminate surface with CARPRO Iron X. Use during wash cycle (after Reset) and as directed.
- Use CARPRO Reload every 3-12 months or as you prefer.
Additional Tips:
- Finding the right time to “level” (wipe off) excess coating after it flashes:
- Start with a single 2ft x 2ft test section to determine flash time before applying coating to entire vehicle. Flash time will vary depending on temperature, humidity, air movement, paint type, how thick it is applied, and more.
- If coating is applied thick then the coating will take longer to flash. If applied thin it will flash faster. Hot temps will cause it to flash faster, cold temps will cause it to flash slower. Air movement will cause it to flash faster.
- When it flashes you will see it begin to change in wetness, appearance, or else bead up.
- All streaks should wipe off and the paint should be nice and clear.
- Lighting – Lighting is key to make sure you wipe off completely without leaving high spots. You don’t want “direct light” like you would use on paint correction, but rather ambient light. Look at the paint from different angles to make sure none of the coating is missed. Spot light will “wash out” the high spots visually. Think of it like this: when you wipe off a sealant you have hours to go and check it again outside or in other lighting. In this case you need to pay attention as you go rather than wait an hour. Thorough removal of residue and streaks is necessary to avoid the need to polish off high spots later.
- Wait between 2 ~ 15 minutes depending on temperature, humidity, and air movement, and find the right window to wipe when you’re doing your test panel. Generally in medium temperatures 7 ~ 10 minutes is the right window.
- High spots – A high spot is excess coating that was not leveled (wiped off). Most of the time it will look like a darker or rainbow colored mark. If you discover them within minutes then a bit more product will easily lift them. If found days later then you would use a dot of finishing polish such as CARPRO Reflect and rub the high spot off, wipe it down with CARPRO Eraser or your IPA of choice, and then re-coat that area and onto the area around it by about 6″. Then start wiping off the perimeter immediately and slowly work inwards to feather it until you reach the area you are trying to re-coat at the appropriate time. This is the method used to avoid polishing the entire panel and re-coating.
Precautions:
- Do not apply in direct sun or on hot surface.
- Keep away from children
- Do not re-use 4″ suede applicators.
- Do not re-use the towels you used to buff off with on paint.
- Wear hand protection.
- Wear respiratory protection such as a painters mask.
